Uses publicly available tools to visualize data. – Linked Data for Professional Education https://ld4pe.dublincore.org Learning resources tagged by competency Thu, 19 Nov 2020 14:45:03 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.16 0 to 60 on SPARQL Queries in 50 Minutes https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/0-to-60-on-sparql-queries-in-50-minutes-3/ Sun, 06 May 2018 02:22:48 +0000 https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/0-to-60-on-sparql-queries-in-50-minutes-3/ This webinar provides an introduction to SPARQL, a query language for RDF. Users will gain hands on experience crafting queries, starting simply, but evolving in complexity. These queries will focus on coinage data in the SPARQL endpoint hosted by http://nomisma.org with numismatic concepts defined in a SKOS-based thesaurus and physical specimens from three major museum collections (American Numismatic Society, British Museum, and Münzkabinett of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin) linked to these concepts. Results generated from these queries in the form of CSV may be imported directly into Google Fusion Tables for immediate visualization in the form of charts and maps. Links to all resources necessary to practice the queries covered are available online and referenced from the webinar presentation.

The webinar uses the following SPARQL constructs: SELECT, WHERE, LIMIT, ORDER BY (ASC), FILTER, DISTINCT, regex(), count(), lang(), langMatches().

Access to all SPARQL queries used in the webinar are available at http://numishare.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.

Linked Statistical Data Analysis https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/linked-statistical-data-analysis/ Sun, 13 Aug 2017 08:18:11 +0000 https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/linked-statistical-data-analysis/ Linked Data design principles are increasingly employed to publish and consume high-fidelity, heterogeneous statistical datasets in a distributed fashion. While vast amounts of linked statistics are available, access and reuse of the data is subject to expertise in corresponding technologies. There exists no user-centered interfaces for researchers, journalists and interested people to compare statistical data retrieved from different sources on the Web. Given that the RDF Data Cube vocabulary is used to describe statistical data, its use makes it possible to discover and identify statistical data artifacts in a uniform way. In this article, the design and implementation of a user-centric application and service is presented. Behind the scene, the platform utilizes federated SPARQL queries to gather statistical data from distributed data stores. The R language for statistical computing is employed to perform statistical analyses and visualizations. The Shiny application and server bridges the front-end Web user interface with R on the server-side in order to compare statistical macrodata, and stores analyses results in RDF for future research. As a result, distributed linked statistics with accompanying provenance data can be more easily explored and analysed by interested parties.

SPARQL Package for R: Movie Star Graph Visualization Tutorial https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/sparql-package-for-r-movie-star-graph-visualization-tutorial/ Sun, 06 Aug 2017 07:58:04 +0000 https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/sparql-package-for-r-movie-star-graph-visualization-tutorial/ The SPARQL Package allows you to directly import results of SPARQL SELECT queries into the statistical environment of R as a data frame, allowing one to directly perform statistical analysis on datasets on the web. This tutorial shows how to do a visual analysis with the Gephi graph visualization tool, and basic social network analysis with R of the data in the DBpedia repository about Hollywood movies. It makes use of the SPARQL Package for R and the igraph library.

Putting SPARQL on the Map with Ordnance Survey Linked Data and OS OpenSpace https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/putting-sparql-on-the-map-with-ordnance-survey-linked-data-and-os-openspace/ Mon, 16 Jan 2017 06:46:07 +0000 https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/putting-sparql-on-the-map-with-ordnance-survey-linked-data-and-os-openspace/ In this blog post, the author describes how to plot SPARQL query results from the Ordnance Survey dataset, available as Linked Open data (LOD) onto an OS OpenSpace map. This requires querying a SPARQL endpoint and choosing CSV as the output format, then pasting the URL of the generated HTTP GET request into the appropriate input field of the OS OpenSpace tool.

Visualising The Location Graph With Gephi and Ordnance Survey Linked Data https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/visualising-the-location-graph-with-gephi-and-ordnance-survey-linked-data/ Sat, 14 Jan 2017 06:46:01 +0000 https://ld4pe.dublincore.org/learning_resource/visualising-the-location-graph-with-gephi-and-ordnance-survey-linked-data/ Building on a previous post, the author shares another example using a SPARQL endpoint to query Linked Open Data and turn the results into a graph (aka, "network") visualization using the Gephi tool (and its 'Semantic Web Import' plugin). Includes an example of federated search as well as a work-around to convert SPARQL results from Turtle to XML.
